What Does Persistent Head Pain After An Injury Indicate?

I hit the top of my head while getting on my forklift at work. I saw stars a little bit and smelled metal and my head felt like it was floating along with pain. It s been 5 hours since it happened and my head hurts still a bit and I feel tired and drained.

Hi,

You take diclofenac and paracetamol combination. If pain persists then consult neurophysician, do CT scan brain for further evaluation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
